Let me tell you, the self-confidence and pride you can take in doing so much while keeping up academically and socially makes you feel like you can tackle anything. I averaged 4 hours of sleep during my spring semester of hs, I average 7 now. If you stress yourself (reasonably) it will pay off 100 fold later. I know I say this so often, but you have no idea how huge of a deal it really is.

Challenge yourself as much as possible and you will come prepared.
